Why DUers like Tweety

[malaise]

Because when push comes to shove he supports the Democratic Party. He just delivered a commentary telling peeps why they should vote against ReTHUGS and Teebaggers.

[no limit]

1. Fuck Tweety. He goes where ever the wind happens to blow.

[11 Bravo]

8. If you believe the wind is blowing against the Repugs and the Teabaggers, you would make ...

one piss-poor meteorologist.

[no limit]

10. When I said "which way the wind is blowing" I meant where the money is

Matthews was the biggest kiss ass for Bush on MSNBC during the Iraq war and then long after that. It wasn't until people like KO saw their ratings increase while right wing media decreased that he jumped on the democratic bandwagon.

Here is a media matters article from 2005, enjoy:

[Motown_Johnny]

3. he is a cog in the Democratic Party's machine, nothing more

[Quantess]

4. He's entertaining and unpredictable.

Makes for good tv.

5. Tweety is on our side.. he just has to give lip service to the opposition once in awhile..

to sound "fair and balanced".

[no limit]

6. Like when he kissed Bush's ass during the Iraq invasion, calling him a hero

he only did it to seem fair and balanced.

[DCBob]

7. Most of the country was hyped up to go after Iraq..

we were lied to and manipulated. Few saw through the smokescreen.

9. Yup we were lied to and manipulated. By the media, which included Matthews.

11. I haven't forgotten his kissing Tom DeLay's ass, either.

[no limit]

12. Or constantly making sexist remarks toward Hillary Clinton

funny I still remember that, since I really did not like Hillary Clinton during the 08 primaries.

13. Did you get a tingle up your leg? :)

Sorry, I just couldn't help myself... :evilgrin:

:hi:

[malaise]

14. No

Tweety doesn't do it for me :D

[Renew Deal]

15. DUers don't just like Matthews. They love him. And DUers love Scarborough too.

That's why they watch him so much.

[alfredo]

17. Matthews is a likable guy, I watch the last part right after

Jeopardy. I watch Scabo to see how bad a hangover Mika has. Also, I am starting to believe there are secret messages in Buchanan's combover.

[Raine]

21. Matthews yes

but Scarbourough I just can't stomach anymore, I had to give up wathing him entirely. x(

[depakid]

16. Personally, I've always found the man's show unwatchable

[H2O Man]

18. I like Mr. Matthews.

I don't always agree with him, but I believe he is a good man.

[UTUSN]

19. Neh. Just, neh. When it really COUNTS (impeachment, Iraq) he's always on the wrong side. n/t

[Raine]

20. I like him inspite of him

being so unpredictable sometimes he's so outrageous that I just have to shake my head and laugh but other times he's on point. If nothing else he's entertaining when he's off his meds.
